 The `sql.contention.event_store.duration_threshold` [cluster setting]({% link {{ page.version.version }}/cluster-settings.md %}) specifies the minimum contention duration to cause the contention events to be collected into the `crdb_internal.transaction_contention_events` table. The default value is `0`. If contention event collection is overwhelming the CPU or memory you can raise this value to reduce the load.
